RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico – Sophomore Michaela Owen shot a 1-over-par 73 to lead the Auburn women’s golf team in the first round of the Lady Puerto Rico Classic on Sunday.
Owen carded a team-best four birdies on the day, finishing strong after some struggles midway through the round. Starting on the seventh hole with the shotgun start, she was 1-under through 10 holes before a bogey at 17 and double-bogey at 18 dropped her to 2-over. However, she got back to even par with birdies at the third and fourth holes before finishing with a bogey.
